The Wichita Eagle’s second annual Haunted Food Trucks event, which features food, trunk-or-treating and general All Hallows Eve frivolity, is tonight.

And it will return with several upgrades from last year.

It will start at 5 p.m. Oct. 30 in The Eagle’s back parking lot, which is off Rock Island between Douglas and Waterman downtown. Eight local food trucks will be there selling their food. The trucks signed up are The Flying Stove, B.S. Sandwich Press, The Kamayan Truck, Big Chill Ice Cream, Brown Box Bakery, Garden of Eatin, Funky Monkey Munchies and Ms. Tosha’s Chicken.

Attendees are encouraged to give their costumes a test run, and Eagle staff members, including new publisher Roy Heatherly, will staff a trunk-or-treat, passing out candy from 12 decorated cars. Eagle writers Beccy Tanner, Michael Pearce and Roy Wenzl will be there signing copies of books they’ve published, and Suzanne Perez Tobias, Denise Neil, Carrie Rengers, Annie Calovich and Gabby Dunn will also be there to meet with visitors.

The event also will have lots of seating this year. For more information, call 316-268-6327.
